1985 Custom Jaguar XJS restomod. MUST SEE!
I've owned this car for about three years and it's never left me stranded.
The engine is a crate 305 Chevy with Edlebrock 650 cfm 4 bbl. Carb on performance Edelbrock manifold. High rise lifters, performance cam, and billett aluminum high rise valve covers. The trans is a 350 TH that was just rebuilt and under warrantee and shifts firm, will even bark the tires. Two new U-joint on driveshaft.
Newer paint (about 6 - 8 years ago) and new tires, new gas charged shocks (all 4 rear) and new brakes (drilled and slotted rotors on front) ceramic pads all around.
Has power windows that both work, factory A/C is not working, Custom cool air/ram air induction: Custom Magnaflow 3 inch dual exhaust. MANY new parts; Newly rebuilt power steering rack, new tie-rods, new power steering pump, new electric brake vacuum booster, new tires, newer battery, custom battery tray in trunk, new glass fuel filter and much more.
Two bucket seats were just redone earlier this year and have carbon fiber seat heaters on both front seats. The headliner is custom fiberglass with additional dome light installed. New carpet installed and also in trunk.
Rare Tom Walkinshaw Racing ground effects kit (not avail since late 1980's)
5 Dayton racing wire wheels ( including spare), leather/wood interior in very good shape.
Runs and drives great and very dependable. Great cruiser very fast and fun and comfortable to drive. Ready for cruising. THIS CAR IS A HEAD TURNER!!!
I've got a bunch of receipts and a bunch of spare parts and they all go with the Jag. This is a Jag XJS that you'll be proud to show off. This is my fourth and last Jag XJS. I'm going away from foreign cars and back to US classics. Years ago I restored an 82 XJS that was featured in the show Top Gear USA, and was driven by famous racer, Tanner Foust, TV host and professional driver.
I have clear title in hand ready to go.
This is not your typical XJS, must see. Sounds great too and NOT loud, but has a nice tone when idling.
I think I put all the info on here that I could think of, but feel free to ask any questions, but don't wait too late.

Used |
“Has a small ding on passenger door, older paint job (more than 6 years ago) that still looks very good with very little scratches or wear. Front bucket seats were recovered in vinyl, look good, but not professionally done. Intake manifold leaks a bit of oil, but I have the gasket set on hand. There was a rust spot between lower passenger door are rear tire that was cut out and repaired and paint was touched up, close, but not exact match. Instrument panel has been replaced and mileage shown is not accurate (that's why it says Title Issues). Car is over 30 years old so I can't guarantee it, but runs and drives very well. AC not working, unit under dash needs to be replaced. Gas gauge shows about 3/4 full when topping off tank, so it's off a bit. Tach and speedometer work...sometimes they act a bit funny. Feel free to ask any questions” |
